Photoluminescence (PL) and photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectroscopy of Dy2S3-doped As12Ge33Se55 glasses demonstrate that the broad, below-gap PLE mechanism observed previously for rare-earth emissions in Er- and Pr-doped chalcogenide glasses is a general or universal feature of rare-earth-doped chalcogenide gla…

The sulfur vulcanization of polyisoprene accelerated by 2-bisbenzothiazole-2,2′-disulfide (MBTS) was investigated. Rubber compounds were heated in a DSC and removed at various temperatures along the DSC thermal curve. The rubber vulcanizate was analyzed for crosslink density and for residual reactants and extractable…

First-principles electronic structure calculations show that Ga wets the low Miller index surfaces of Al. Consistent with a thermodynamic basis for the observation that Ga causes single-crystal Al to crack along (100) planes, the Ga-covered (100) plane has the lowest surface energy. This represents a compromise betwee…

We review the "Rigid Unit Mode" model that was developed to explain a number of features of framework silicate crystals composed of linked tetrahedral units, but which has implications also for the stability of perovskite structures if the octahedra have some degree of rigidity. The discussion includes the constraints…

Fluorescence dip infrared spectroscopy (FDIRS) is used to probe the effect of a solvent water molecule on intramolecular H-atom tunneling in tropolone. As with the bare molecule discussed in paper I, the FDIR spectrum of the tropolone-H2O complex is recorded in the O–H and C–H stretch regions. Three OH stretch fundame…

Much more intense ultraviolet (UV) and blue upconversion fluorescence of Tm3+ was observed in a new stable fluoroindate glass compared with other fluoride or oxide glasses. The intense upconversion intensity and high thermal stability of these fluoroindate glasses indicate a high possibility for the realization of a U…

Structural characteristics of liquid silicon (l-Si) have been examined by molecular-dynamics calculations using the Tersoff empirical potential. Generated l-Si possesses a broad distribution of the coordination number dominated by the sixfold coordination. The average bond length increases with the coordination number…

Using a previously proposed diagrammatic approach for the calculation of the renormalized polarizability of spherical inclusions in a homogeneous matrix we obtain an effective dielectric response of a composite of nonpercolating inclusions taking into account a continuous distribution of sizes of the spheres. We apply…

Polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) materials based on poly(polyethyleneglycol methacrylate) are prepared by ultraviolet light induced polymerization. Microphase structure of PDLC films is observed by scanning electron microscopy. It reveals that reversed morphology type PDLC is obtained. The liquid crystal (LC) i…

Thick p-type porous 6H SiC layers were fabricated by anodization of p-type 6H SiC bulk crystals in dilute HF. Striking differences are observed in the reststrahl region room-temperature reflectance of these porous layers compared to that of bulk 6H SiC crystals. Instead of the single broad band reflectance spectrum ty…

We present a model of tetrahedral amorphous carbon (with density 3.0 g ${\mathrm{cm}}^{\mathrm{\ensuremath{-}}3}$) obtained from self-consistent plane-wave (Car-Parrinello) methods. This model is closely related to one we presented earlier [Phys. Rev. B 49, 16 415 (1994)], except for an even greater tendency toward ${…

We analyzed the photoluminescence (PL) mechanisms of porous silicon, and in particular, the origin of the PL high quantum efficiency (QE) at room temperature. For this we used postformation treatments, anodic oxidation, and hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching (known for their strong QE enhancement effect) correlated with a…

Electrical switching properties of Ge-As-Te glasses have been investigated over a wide range of mean coordination numbers (〈r〉) in a single composition tie line. The results obtained clearly indicate the modulation of the composition dependence of switching fields by network topology. Distinct change is observed in th…

It is shown that charge transport in SiC ceramics includes atomic mechanisms as well as phenomena which depend on the microstructure of the material. Both aspects are revealed by the analysis of temperature-dependent dc and ac measurements. The complex dielectric function (DF) of boron-doped SiC ceramics with various…
